Charlotte was there playing acoustic. Love that she was there supporting Belinda in the beginning of her solo career.
Thanks for pointing this out! Wow, I missed those shots of her and had to roll it back. She's clearly havin a blast.
I thought that was her, good to know. Thanks.
Чувак! "Поддерживая" - это ты загнул! Если она ее "поддерживала", то почему она скоро от нее ушла и создала свою группу? Тебе не кажется что это дело немного темное? Я думаю что Шарлоота не знала даже по началу, куда ее тащит звездная девушка, при этом разваливая Го-Го*с. Говоря прямо Белинда просто использовала Шарлотту. Это очень по вашему - по-американски!
i never noticed that
Belinda actually helped HER out
The "Our Lips Are Sealed" video is perfection, peak 1980s. It's joyous, upbeat, catchy and it made every kid in America want to be in Los Angeles.
I liked the Head Over Heals bit too.
This Town is more about what it was like being young and living in LA/hollywood in the 1980s.
It's beyond crazy how cute she was and on top of that also a great performer.
She was high as kite
@@Badmansband I watched this clip again after your comment and i have to say that you are right 😄 I didn't notice the first time. Good times when you could be high on a TV show. Still cute as a button.
@@pfzt I only know this because I did a search on her bio. She said she was hooked for 30 years and didn't get clear until 2005. That's not what blew me away. What blew me away was she has only married once and was married all the time during her addictions and still is.
She just busts out a stellar live performance with the Letterman house band.
What a talent! Like every "Gen-Xer" Belinda's and the Go-Go's music will be in my brain till I cease to exist.
the house band is better than probably 75% of the bands that made it to the top 40 throughout the 80s and 90s
@peainapodtube Those house bands are not to be messed with. most were from new waves or punks from the 70s .
She was so cute and had (has) such a distinctive vibrato to her voice. She's still married to that guy that she eloped with, so good for her! Paul and the band did a good job of backing her up.
Yeah, I've always had a weakness for female singers with a vibrato. Linda Ronstadt had that as well.
I dislike it. It's like she's trying to find the note.
@@user-lq9zb7pd4k In this fanboi video, yes, I am in the minority. Thank you for observing the obvious.
@@theeclectic2919 really, interesting - I saw Linda in the 80's - wow! - her voice!
@@squirrelattackspidy You're STILL being stupid?
Wow Was not expecting that old-fashioned raw live performance. Kind of refreshing hearing it totally organic and unprocessed.
I really agree. Sounds like how The Go-Go’s might have done it, if they had gone ahead and recorded the song themselves as planned.
Ahh, that 80's childhood crush. She's awesome! ❤🎶
Same. I was 8 when this aired. I always thought she was incredibly sultry.
She and Susanna Hoffs made me feel funny in my pants
Great performance by Belinda.
Top shelf band, bar none.
Miss those guys.
Amazing how Paul’s band can serve the musical needs of every guest performer no matter the genre.
You are so right!!!!💯
I was just going to post that! They sound exactly like the record and I’m sure didn’t have a lot of time to learn the song
That’s what professional talent does every day..And they make it look easy.. it’s not
When they backed Eddie Van Halen who came by himself and played Panama, it was really unbelievable. Paul played all the vocals on piano. That band was really tight.
serve ? he makes a disservice to every song I like
What an amazingly dynamic and powerful band Paul and the fellas were. They backed her to absolute perfection. And it of course goes without saying that Belinda is outstanding.
Wow, she is stunning and such a great voice.
That band was phenomenal. If anybody told you that that was the recording group you believe it but probably the one and only time they performed that song.
Actual performance, not a lip synch. Very impressive. Also, Belinda was one of the loveliest women ever to appear in the public eye, no exaggeration.
She still tours, at age 65…
The band just went ahead and did all the arrangements and sang back up flawlessly in one take....
Michelle Phillips?
@@ManChan-w5pPretty, but Belinda > Michelle.
She is SO beautiful
I seen Belinda perform Live in Brisbane Australia 2 days ago and She is still a great performer with passion and very down earth with a great personality , One of the greatest singers ever
Gotta say one of the most remarkably stunning hair styles on a woman I've ever seen (outside the 1920s). Quite remarkable and well suited for for her facial structure. God, I really miss the 1980s.
Belinda just comes alive behind the microphone
She was so friggin cute! Possibly high as a kite in this interview, but dang,I loved this song!! Glad her and the rest of the girls got it together and that they got into the R&R Hall of Fame 👍
She was such a doll.
She's so-PRETTY-here on this segment and has nice eyes.And I really liked the-GOs-Gos back in the day.
Its so fun to see clips like this again and understand all the adult innuendo that confused me the first time
That is so awesome!!! ❤ Great job by Paul and the band. So, great to be live and not a lip sync .
Belinda Carlisle is hilarious.
The music video of "Mad About You" is so Santa Monica, Melrose Ave, Pacific Palisades,Venice Beach and Malibu Beaches. She is a true L.A. gal. Love me some Belinda ❤
oh yeah!
She lives in France and has for years. I don’t think she cares for LA anymore.
I know she lives in France and has lived there for over 2 decades. She is from L.A. and the image she portrayed in her music video was so L.A. in the 1980s. How do I know this? I'm from L.A. and vividly remember the lifestyle. 😀
What a natural super star Belinda was
I LOVE Belinda!! I always sang to the GO-GO'S. . still do!!! 💗
Belinda, a timeless babe for the ages!!
She's 65 now, and the miracle of all miracles, she's still married to Morgan Mason. Has to be some kind of entertainment industry record.
Belinda was along with the other Go Gos my crushes. She’s still married to Mason. Their son I think is in his 30’s I’m guessing They are proud supporters of their son. I understand she lives primarily in France. Glad that the Go Gos put aside differences and still tour
Miracle? In that social environment? More like apocalyptic...
Son of actor James Mason
Yeah
Good for her
@@shockingguy ?
i hate when i see these youtube posts b/c the first thing i have to do is find out if the person has recently passed. Thanks goodness that is not the case here. I SO LOVED her first album!! Was great to see her in an interview for the first time.
????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!! What? You 'hate TH-cam posts' cuz you have to check every person to see if they're still alive?! That's gotta ppl among the single most utterly ridiculous and bizarre comments I've ever seen. Wtf are you TH-cam for? Sounds like some massive OCD goin' on.
@@kevinlakeman5043 no. posts on this channel. many times they post a video of a person cuz they have just passed.
i didn’t mean ALL of youtube posts.
@@kevinlakeman5043 It’s just a manner of speaking/a sentiment many of us have. I do the same thing. There have been so many musicians and artists from my childhood that have been passing within such a short amount of time and it hits hard esp when you hear about it well after it happened. Their music brought so much joy and accompanied so many memories for us growing up and while it’s different kind of grief than that of a close friend or relative, it can be saddening to say good bye. If I am going to jump online to cheer myself up with a song/video, I’d rather be prepared. Not sure why this is a foreign concept.
OMG we aren't that old!!!! I'm Belinda's age, 80s were the best, i'm sad for the kids today they don't have our innocence and joy.
@@lizswenson2813 it’s easier just to acknowledge we’re old lol. it’s a more peaceful and enjoyable existence once you just acknowledge it.
What a gorgeous woman.
Love this song ...sounds great live!!!
Omigosh she's so adorable❤
So beautiful 💗
We love Belinda always ,(since 1987)
Is that Charlotte from the Go-Gos playing guitar in the back?
yes.
Yes, she sang backup on the recording & Andy Taylor played guitar 😎
I vaguely remember this tune, but with Paul, Anton, etc., this was probably the best performance of the song.
my first celebrity crush, her.
Great snare sound! (I know this is highly off-topic, but it does sound great.)
The Go Go's: the only all-girl band to have a #1 album. Ever. P.S. - this sounded GREAT!!!
and they wrote all their songs
A vacation was all Belinda wanted.
lol. It was a surprise to everyone because their lips were sealed.
She had to get away
Love watching Paul nerd out with beautiful women
No matter how enchanting a rose is, it can never bloom forever.
grade 3 1980 or so some kids brought go go's album....never forgot it
ha, I have a Go-Go's album
That's great even Paul Shaffer is mad about you🙂 Belinda has an incredibly beautiful voice.
Love Belinda. Miss the GoGos.
She is so beautiful!
and then some!
Wow! Belinda and Dave! That's an interesting duo.
She’s still with us. 😅
Weird funny info about The Go Go's. When 'Our Lips Are Sealed' came out it was a huge hit in Australia as well. But because the Aussies had a little bit of a hard time understanding the American accent in the song... they thought it was 'Alex The Seal'. Seriously... not kidding.
OK. This will sound ignorant, but I never considered that American accents were hard to understand. Maybe some, like the strong Boston ones or Louisana ones but otherwise, I thought they were easily understood.
Belinda o wow shes stunning
Ela continua linda. Tem gente que envelhece bem. ❤
Charlotte hiding back there too.
Wow that's an awesome performance 👍
She was a Princess 👸
High maintenance?
She's a Queen 👑 still gorgeous after all of these years.
I LOVED THE GOGO GIRLS AND ADORED BELINDA... I WAS 22 YEARS LIVING IN AUGSBURG GERMANY ...MY 2 YEAR YEAR OLD DAIGHTER AND I WOULD GETJGGIE WITH THIS SONG TOGETHER LOVED MY 20S LIVING IN AUGSBURG GERMANY!! GREAT FUN DANCE LOVE FUNNY LIFE
The world's most dangerous band delivers again!
I had and still have a huge crush on her
Wasn't Charlotte playing the acoustic?
Yeah, I think so. So, there were two Go Gos performing.
Not just one Go
great to see a real live performance not lipsinking like most TV shows
Belinda, like Valerie Harper, is somebody that I root for.
💰 for her every time the 📻 plays this song.🎼
Oh, she was so cute.
Interesting, that Charlotte agreed with Belinda to break up the band. Considering that Charlotte was the primary song writer (although Jane Weidlin did contribute more as time went on) and Belinda was the lead singer, without the two of them the band could not continue. Glad they finally got back together at the turn of the century for one more album, with the hit "Unforgiven" co written by Charlotte Caffee and Billy Joe Armstrong of Green Day with some input from Jane Weidlin for the band's last top 40 hit, peaking at #22.
The Go Go’s were not The Go Go’s without Jane. They thought that they could replace her, just like they had done with other members in the past. But they were very wrong. She was indispensable for group chemistry. They did a few shows with her replacement Paula Jean Brown in 1985 before Belinda and Charlotte decided to break up the band because their heart wasn’t in to the band anymore. That would never have happened if Jane hadn’t left to go solo herself. Consider what has happened in the years since then. They’ve replaced Gina and Kathy(and Charlotte temporarily, because of pregnancy) with new people and gone on tour with them. 2010 was supposed to be The Go Go’s farewell tour. But it was canceled because Jane hurt her knee while hiking, requiring surgery and a year of rehab. The rest of the band didn’t want to tour without her. That shows how invaluable Jane is to The Go Go’s.
Gorgeous 😍
Always had a huge crush for her. To this day …
Don't think I've ever seen a drummer have his cymbals so high up
The legendary James Mason’s legendary daughter-in-law.
❤❤❤
Glad the Go Go's made the Hall of Fame. Like a lot of men, I was crushing on Belinda, and Jane to a lesser extent. When she started cleaning up her appearance and image for her solo career, it was like a new person almost. This is my favorite song of her solo career. She had mild success for a few years, unlike Suzanna Hoffs who bombed, crashed and burned. As far as Letterman, he started out great with his dry, sarcastic humor. But eventially he became full of himself, acted bigger than the stars he interviewed. He openly flirted with female guests, would act bored and disinterested at times. His feud with Leno was off-putting, he could never get over Leno getting his dream job or Leno beating him in the ratings.
wait, are we talking about Belinda?
I still have a crush on this woman 👏🤣
Dave you are the luckiest man alive! Oh, you're talented and you worked your a$$ of to get where you are, but... Sitting with Belinda and the Go-Go's is a blessing that you can't count on even with a successful career! She may be the most stunningly beautiful woman! Lol! 😂 I was born January 2nd 1980 so my entire life I had the hots for all of the Go-Gos
Still married to her husband.
The late actor James Mason was her father-in-law.
The closed captioning on this is funny. "Im not about about you"
Morgan Mason was one lucky guy
My teenage crush. Think she still might be! 😊
I recall MTV having an interview with Jane where she seemed like she was more angry at the record company than Belinda. Sounded like they railroaded her a bit. She wrote or helped write several of their hits and they kind of put her on the back burner.
Several years after the band breakup, the entire original group reunited and actually wrote new music together…and yes, that included Jane Wiedlin.
@@twoblacklabs904Yep.
Now every time I see someone on letterman TH-cam I have to check and see if there dead...
Belinda is made about me. Bang bang bang 😁
That’s always a good song❤🎉
Is she high? if she is that makes her even more beautiful….
The performance is way more interesting than the interview, where she comes across as awkward.
Hope they had many happy children ? Very talented singer...
Letterman clearly had a crush. She was on 3 days in a row at one time?
Having heard this song since it came out, this version made me realize it's the GoGos without the GoGos..this could easily be their song. She kept the same style musically but changed the background. The drums, the bass it's the same.
“This could easily be their song.” Maybe if you compare it with Yes Or No or Head Over Heels. But those songs were atypical of the band’s discography.
Imagine being in the audience and hearing this for the first time....
She's bombed here, but she's still super cute.
she was a cutie pie.
A couple years later Dave more or less kidnapped Belinda from an interview in the building because she "looks so great." Show that one!
Charlotte was there but didn't give her credit?? sad.
She’s 65 now and still a hottie
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
A word of advice to all of you: instead of writing the usual pathetic comments, you'd be better off looking for more footage, because Belinda has performed on this show many times. And don't leave a "thumbs up" on my comment, just do as I said. Otherwise, we will NEVER see her other performances in this show. Thanks in advance.
BELINDA WAS BEAUTIFUL AND SEXY AS ALWAYS! BUT HOW ABOUT THAT BAND? THEY PLAYED VERY WELL! SOUNDED ALMOST LIKE THE RECORD! PS. THE GO GOS SHOULD HAVE NEVER BROKEN UP! THEY WERE A GREAT, UNIQUE BAND, WITH THEIR OWN SOUND, LOOK, AND SENSIBILITIES. THEY WERE ALSO A VERY BIG PART OF THE 80s!
So , Paul Schaefer and the band just arranged all the music and sang back up???
God I miss the 80s!!!
Belinda is a cutie.
I believe that's charlotte on the quitar
Paul is such a screwball but he was awesome. Nothing will ever match Dave's show. It broke the mold.
MERCY❗ 😳
Instead of madonna, I wished Marvel went with this song for Deadpool and Wolverine
It’s a great song but is desperately missing Kathy Valentine on bass. The guy is just following the chords around in the most tedious way possible.
Second!! Blessed be!!🙏
Interesting that there was no entrance music for her.
